<h1>CVS: Versioning Options Window</h1>
<a name="BEGIN" id="BEGIN"></a>
<p>The CVS Versioning Options window provides an interface allowing you to apply arbitrary metadata to files or directories by adding, removing, or modifying the status label format of versioning labels for versioned files. You can also adjust CVS settings in the IDE, such as excluding new files from commit actions automatically, or limiting the number of characters per line in commit messages.
